In July 2009, our beautiful son Adam was diagnosed with high-risk neuroblastoma, an aggressive children's cancer. Despite four years of treatment in the UK, Germany, and America, Adam sadly passed away on 11th July 2013 at home with his family. Visit Adam's Appeal at http://adamsappeal.org.

Counts down, soreness up …

Adam’s blood counts are continuing to head towards zero, while his throat is becoming more sore and painful. The porridge and banana that he had for breakfast this morning was a slow and difficult struggle. The pills that we were cutting in half we are now cutting into quarters. The oral medicines that we have been mixing with milk are now starting to stick on the way down.

The expectation/anticipation is that things will become worse over the next 3 to 4 days. I fear it’s going to be a very unpleasant time indeed.
